Abstract

Two different kinds of spin-orbit (SO) coupling are often investigated theoretically and experimentally in atomic Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs), namely, Rashba and Dresselhaus SO couplings. We show that ground states for these two SO-coupled BECs share lots of similarities and it is impossible to distinguish them from the observation of ground states. We find that an Ioffe-Pritchard magnetic field can be utilized as a tool to distinguish them. In the presence of the Ioffe-Pritchard magnetic field, ground states manifest distinctively for the Rashba and Dresselhaus SO-coupled BECs.
